yeah, Pat Robertson is way past his sell date and his outdated alleged advice on “loving” gay people….wait! I thought folks of Robertson’s ilk pushed family values…!?!!?!??!?

1:27, Pat rambling. You just said not to accept it and then you said to accept it. Obviously sensible people know he’s past his prime, but the problem is people like “Carol” who have a common Christian concern and listen to this guy for advice. I can’t stand this antiquated notion of “the gay lifestyle” – whatever the hell that means. And way to be vague about what “not accepting” but also “not judging” means.

“Hey niece — welcome to the family picnic! I’m not judging you, but I don’t accept your lifestyle and your partner. OK, who wants a hamburger?!” If you don’t like that your niece is in a same-sex relationship Carol, realize that it’s a problem with YOU, not your niece. Try not being an ahole and maybe your niece will stay in your life.

Mr. Robertson is an old senile pseudo-Christian hater. It’s time for him to just fade away in to obsecurity.

Wayne: Will there be any detailed, in-person monitoring by TWO of the RHN confab in Portland next month? I don’t live in the Northwest or I’d go undercover myself and submit a detailed report. Is there any way TWO supporters can help? Thanks.

This man is completely crazy! So the gay community is FORCING its beliefs on Christians? Sorry, old man. I’m an Atheist and I highly resent nutheads like you forcing your beliefs on me! We gays have been on earth from the beginning of time, in every culture, and we always will be. You talk about love? You are preaching hate, pure and simple.

Why is it that we have freedom of speech but those who hear something that offends them have to say nasty and disgusting words about others. People want freedom of speech to say what they want to say but then want to silence the speech of others whom they disagree with. You can not have it both ways. You can get your point across without using nasty words.

i.e.: “Be cruel to your gay family members in a warm and loving way.”

You are right, Richard!
I think, Pryia Lynn said a few times:
“They’ve bastardized the meaning of love…”
“Christians bastardize the ordinary meaning of words. Lots of christians will tell you they love a murderer. But they don’t mean love the way it normally occurs. They don’t mean that they’re filled with delight and happiness when they’re in the company of that murderer. They don’t mean they can’t wait to be in their presence again and feel anxious when they are not. No, they’ve turned love into an empty meaningless term that they apply indiscriminately to everyone.”
I couldn’t agree more

Thanks for the shout out, Libria ; )

I was among these koolaid drinkers for 3 decades until I came out so I understand exactly how they think. (it’s a scary place, trust me).

Since being gay is an ‘addiction’ or something hetero-born sinners ‘fall in to’, then that is proof enough that gays can ‘escape’ this ‘lifestyle’ (it’s a choice to them as much as picking up that first cigarette that got you addicted). Remember it’s the gay porn that got you addicted to “gay”, not the fact you were born that way which explains why you LIKE gay porn. Using this as their standard of measurement, if we REJECT gay people’s ‘gayness’, then this continual unacceptance will eventually and magically ‘wake’ the gay person up out of his daze and reject being homosexual because of the constant pressure of disapproval. To the contrary, if you approve of or accept someone’s homosexuality, then you are an ‘enabler of sin’ and that person will simply be encouraged to continue on in his/her path of ‘willfull disobedience to God’.

Of course, we know how effective this “Christian” strategy has proven over time, huh?

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

CJ: It wasn’t only “gay porn” that ensnared you into the “lifestyle” it was also being molested!

I wish this obnoxious old fu-k would either retire of go ‘meet his Maker’ (mea culpa).

Who really gives a rat’s a*s if they “accept” us or not? I don’t accept their lunacy and nonsense. However, I live with them and deal with them on all levels of society and don’t care at all what they do with their time. Of course, according to Pat, they really need us to do their hair and decorate their living rooms. That’s certainly a positive sign, isn’t it? Fortunately, the writers of our Constitution realized that their personal beliefs, religious or not, had no place in the law. A country of free and equal people, protected from a biased government, could not use religion as the basis for said law. Religion is, by necessity, a mind control method used to keep believers in line with the dictates of the faith and to keep the money flowing in from the saps. No problem with that – it’s all voluntary. We continue to see the way said control is used to steer their thinking and actions into hateful, unkind, and “Illegal” behavior. BUT, the law of equal protection stands in their way. How so many of them wish they could change that! We’d be toast. ALL done with “love” of course. Lucky us.

You are entitled to your opinion. It seems that you cannot deal with other peoples opinions. Freedom of speech works both ways.

Priya LynnMay 18, 2014 at 2:04 pm -

No one’s stopping you from speaking bob, stop playing the victim. You don’t have a right to freedom from criticism which is what bigots like you are really trying to get when you falsely claim you’re being denied free speech.

Bob, dear. Let’s prove you’re wrong. You state an opinion, and we’ll tell you whether you have a logical or factual leg to stand on.

What I fail to understand is why a grown adult needs to consult a religious shaman in order to know what to think.
